Our goal is to help you track your ancestors through time by transcribing genealogical and historical data and placing it
online for the free use of all researchers. We're looking for folks who share our dedication to putting data online and are
interested in helping this project be as successful as we can make it. If you are interested in joining our group
by hosting either this county website or one of the available county websites, view our
Volunteer Information page and Email Kim.
A desire to transcribe data and know-how to make a basic webpage is required.

Is situated in what is knows as “The Platte Country,” in the northwestern part of the State. 
 It embraces both prairie and timber; the soil is fertile, undulating, and some portions broken. 
As to fertility, the soil is hardly surpassed in the State. 
The county is well watered by the Platte, Hundred-and-Two, and Nodaway, each affording excellent water power for manufactories and mills. 
Farmers, stock growers, manufacturers and mechanics will here find attractive inducements for investment and business. 
Population in 1860, 5,136.
